The Scream supports recalling Mayor Funkhouser

The petition drive to recall oversized novelty mayor Mark Funkhouser is
down to the wire with only three days left to get the 17,000 signatures
needed to put the issue before voters. Kansas City Star columnist Steve Kraske's Up To Date talk show -- 11 a.m. today on KCUR 89.3
-- will be devoted to the recall effort with a showdown between Harris
Wilder, one of the petition's organizers and a local attorney, and
George Blackwood, a Funkhouser ally and former city councilman.
I'd heard that there was a drive-through recall-the-Funk station at Valentine and Broadway, but that turned out not to be true. A couple of the organizers -- Michael Hart and Michael Pozun -- were hanging out outside the former Blockbuster video at 3625 Broadway.
They're also selling T-shirts for $10.
